"For
some years we have had many enquiries for Boracol 10RH from yacht owners all over
the world, and especially from Hallberg Rassy yacht owners with teak decks on
their boats! They have told us that Hallberg Rassy have recommended Boracol 10RH
for controlling teak decks for moulds and algae growth! Those who have used it
say that it works splendidly and a treatment lasts for 1-2 years!

It
is obvious that all kind of boats could take advantage of a treatment with Boracol
10RH, if they have the usual winter lay up problem with algae and moulds! By the
Spring it is all too obvious who did not treat their decks - they are filthy -
and difficult to restore. I recommend Boracol 5 and 10RH to my Owners"

"I
wish they had done this 12 years ago!

Once
you have treated cockpit or deck with Boracol you will be surprised by how little
you have to clean the wood. Almost all the "dirt" is actually fungal."

"I'd
agree with that, having used Boracol (or equivalent) for years. It's just so easy,
too, no need to spend ages on my knees rubbing the deck. Also great for sprayhoods
and other canvas."

A
Boron based clear liquid, designed to treat timber by brush, spray or roller.
It avoids the hazard problems of many liquid preservatives by using only water
and glycol as carriers. It can also be used in most situations to replace other
less friendly contact type insecticides, including Permethrin.

Description

5
litres or 25 litres, ready to use, water and Glycol based, clear, non-staining,
quick drying treatment to prevent Mould Growth, Staining and Spotting, Slime and
all kinds of rot and insect attack. It is a natural Fire Suppressant, inhibiting
surface spread of flame.

Limitations

Boracols
do not restore colour or remove natural oxidation 'silvering'. If you want to
return the timber to its original colour you will need to sand thoroughly and
then carry out the Boracol treatment. Boracols are not UV Light resistant, so
if you want to keep the original colour you will need to apply a wood coating
AFTER the Boracol has thoroughly dried.

Wear
the correct safety equipment and keep unprotected people and animals out of the
treated area for the statutory period given on the label, or until surfaces are
dry, which ever is the longer.

All
products have some hazards and the COSHH Regulations (Control of Substances Hazardous
to Health) apply to ALL building repair and construction products that we sell,
even Cement.

If in doubt
consult us for free technical help. Take care not to contaminate soil, waterways
or the environment with the product or the waste and packaging. These can be returned
to us for disposal.

Avoid
using any type of chemical in your home if any of the following are likely to
come into contact with the spray or treated surfaces: animals, fish, birds, babies,
young children, asthmatics, pregnant women or those vulnerable due to ill health.

On-going
European reclassification of Pesticides has resulted in our Borax product having
to carry a warning label (for the first time since 1890) on all products used
at over 5.5% BAE concentration. This label is a warning that if you eat the product
and then became pregnant you might give birth to a slightly underweight
baby, or suffer a slight reduction in the size of your testes. The tests, on rats,
required them to eat the human equivalent of 18 level teaspoons full of Borate
(DOT) per day for 2 years. We believe that you are unlikely to do this and the
lack of any other negative evidence, despite the severe European Review process,
suggests that this product is very safe indeed.

Woodworm
treatment products do not need to even reach the 5% concentration level to be
effective, so are not subject to any additional labelling, because of their unblemished
safety record.

A
20% or 5% active clear Gel ideal for end grain and bearing area treatment of beams
and joists. Also useful for medium to heavy active infestations of insect attack
and treatment of new timbers for use in vulnerable areas (e.g. cut ends, bolt
and screw holes). Use as a lubricant and preservative where nails, screws, bolts
or plates come into contact with wood.

A
unique SUPER STRENGTH paste using a special blend of technical grade glycols as
carriers. It can be injected into timber, with the advantage of supplying a highly
concentrated mobile preservative which will spread even at low moisture content
levels. Simple to apply with a standard skeleton gun; more effective to use because
of the higher available level of active content, which allows the use of smaller
(8mm, rather than 10mm) and/or fewer drill holes. Use in conjunction with Boron
Rods.

These
solid rods of HIGH STRENGTH Boron 173 are used to protect timbers which are constantly
or occasionally damp: external joinery, wall plates, embedded beam ends, posts
etc. They can also be used in conjunction with BORON ULTRA 78 paste, to act as
a long term reservoir (Standard Sizes - 8mm x 24mm and 8mm x 65mm).
